Hi all ! Is there way to determine

pulumi delete

during the flow of the script? Just like how there is runtime has a function called is_dry_run to check if its a preview execution or not. Basically I want to perform some deletes on another service before the actual delete of resources happen

PULUMI_NODEJS_DRY_RUN

might do it for you.

Hey ! Thanks for responding. I am using Python for scripting here

I don’t think that matters https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/cli/environment-variables/

I ve updated the post but I think what I am looking for something different

If you want one resource to be deleted before another, chain them with

dependsOn

These resources exist outside of Pulumi state tracking.
